Dandy The mild weather the past two weeks has lulled us into thinking that “This weather will last un­ til Christmas,’’ Will it? Truth­ fully we don’t know! Nothing ruins a day (or an evening!) like an engine that won’t start. It’s not only annoy­ ing, but it’s downright careless­ ness, according to one service man we know. He said, that after the tune- up he gave the ignition, the motor should start O.K. We ask­ ed if opening the carburetor would help—not too much, with an automatic choke, so common on today’s automobiles. Chances are that you won’t need to be pushed if you’ve got a strong battery, a powerful coil, clean breaker points, and peppy spark plugs. Cold weather wears out more engines than hot weather, even though you use them more in the ■ summer. I-Ie suggested, to beat sludge to the punch by changing filter and oil (light) regularly. Cylinder walls wear out five times as fast at 100° as they do at 160°. The temperature gauge will tell you if the thermo­ stat is working. Good anti-freeze doesirt just disappear. There is either a leak or. the engine is running too hot. For Comfort Cars these days are made for comfort. Enjoy all the luxuries you own. If the heater is not putting summer in the back seat find out why. (A slick trick is to open a back window a little bit.) Cold weather is tough on brakes too, he said. You know how to apply pressure to the pedal gradually on icy roads but that won’t keep you out of the ditch if one wheel is “grabby’’. A smooth tire has the same ef­ fect. Snow tires are a wonderful thing and a good investment in snow or mud. Pilots fly on instruments but you need to see where you are going. De-froster units as well as new windshield wiper blades are cheap insurance. While are at it, check the lights, member—an accident is just a word until you have one. A new car today is worth more than half what a good hundred acres cost in 19 40. DID YOU KNOW?

The^opic for discussion, “Citi­ zens Of Tomorrow/’ brought up the question, “Are our farm youth programs succeeding?” The decision of the group was that 4-H and other youth pro­ grams have been successful jn producing community and farm organization leaders. The question, “How can the interest of young people be de­ veloped in such problems as Can­ adian public affairs and inter­ national relations?” brought out the fact that only three provinces, Ontario, Alberta and Manitoba, provide youth organizations from the age of 21 years on. Four decisions were reached at the conclusion of the discussion: first, parents themselves must be interested and discuss Blatters of public and international import­ ance in the^home; second, good leaders must be secured for youth organizations and the co­ operation of parents js vitally important; third, there should be occasional good speakers and films and good literature should be available; fourth, an exchange of visits between different provinces is very valuable.
